Zminijietna – Voice of the Left is supporting the Bolivian government’s measures to carry out the will of the popular mass movement. Evo Morales is himself a product of this movement - made up of various social and progressive movements, with the backing of the people and the Bolivia Communist Party. His overwhelming election victory in December 2005 represented the movement’s success in striving to establish a popular government in the country, in spite of the repeated challenges of recent years from the country’s past rulers .

Zminijietna – Voice of the Left welcomes the decision taken by the Bolivian President to hold a referendum next month over the New Constitution which was approved last week by 153 out of 255 assembly members. This is a justified self-defense against all reactionary forces, the oligarchy, the US government and some European forces who are promoting a large scale campaign aiming to reverse the progressive social developments being implemented by the Leftist Government . The new constitutional reforms include various social reforms, more power to the government over Bolivia’s natural resources for the benefit of the Bolivian people and an amendment to allow the President to seek election in two consecutive five-year terms. The draft constitution will become law if approved in the national referendum

Zminijietna – Voice of the Left recognizes that Bolivia is now facing the likelihood of a U.S.-sponsored campaign to destabilize and overthrow its government, similar to the military coup and other dirty tricks attempted against Venezuela in the last half-decade.
